The flow has been running between 12,000-14,000 cfs for a few days. This morning it is flowing at 12,000 cfs. Notice: The bridge to Leto Island is closed, and there are mandatory personal flotation device (PFD) zones on the river. For more information, view the Brookfield Varick Fish Safely Brochure below.

  2. This report courtesy of the Oswego County Department of Community Development, Tourism and Planning. This report was written on October 18, 2019. Oswego River report: Oswego River: The rainfall we have received in the last couple of days has definitely affected the river flow. This morning it is running at 12,500 cfs. With this flow, fishing some areas of the river is difficult so use caution. The weather is expected to slowly clear with Saturday and Sunday predicted to be nice fall days. Early in the week fish seemed to be active in the harbor area and with the increased water flow in the river, a good number of fish are expected to push up through the river. Anglers are finding salmon, steelhead and an occasional brown trout. Suggested baits are skein, deep diving thundersticks, egg sacs, beads, and marabou jigs.

Lake Ontario/Oswego River report: According Capt. Todd Sheltra of Strike Zone Charters: Well the lake fishing was tougher the last couple of days. My brother and I were separated Friday. I did a trip on my smaller boat while Robin ran Morgan. Our clients each had 6 bites and landed half of them. Saturday we were together on Morgan and had 6 bites but landed all 6.

  8. This report courtesy of the Oswego County Department of Community Development, Tourism and Planning. This report was written on September 27, 2019. NOTICE: National Hunting and Fishing Day, September 28, 2019, is a designated free fishing day in New York which means anyone can fish the freshwaters of New York and no fishing license is required. Lake Ontario/Oswego River report: According to Oz Angling Tackle: As the lake fishing season winds down anglers are still reporting some good action off the harbor and in the harbor as the salmon begin to make their way up into the river. The morning bite has been the most consistent in the harbor for anglers trolling and or casting lures. Moonshine glow spoons, deep diving thundersticks, J-plugs, meat rigs with cut bait, and flasher/flies are suggested baits. The yellow perch bite is happening right now in the Oswego River and Oswego Harbor. Most anglers are using fathead minnow or worms. Don’t ask specifics about where they are because they move.

  11. This report courtesy of the Oswego County Department of Community Development, Tourism and Planning. This report was written on September 19, 2019. Lake Ontario/Oswego River report: According to Capt. Andy Bliss of Chasin’ Tail Adventures: The lake fishing out of Oswego is still good. A small pod of salmon have moved into the harbor area. So you can fish the harbor for spawning fish or head offshore for next year’s class of salmon and steelhead. If you are looking to do more lake trolling in the Port Ontario area, the fishing in front of the Salmon River has really heated up the last few days. According to Strike Zone Charters: The fishing over the last few days has been great with the exception of Monday which was a difficult day. Tuesday was especially exciting with our group landing 15 by 11:30 am. Click here to see the rest of this report on ILoveNYFishing.com.

Lake Ontario/Oswego River report: Typically the lake fishing season would be winding down at this point but it continues to be very good both for staging salmon and the offshore fishery. The wind is again an issue today keeping boats at the dock but conditions are expected to improve for the weekend. The lake is producing some nice size salmon with a beautiful 34.2 pound specimen caught aboard Top Gun Charters recently. Spoons, flashers and flies and cut-bait are still working.

  14. This report courtesy of the Oswego County Department of Community Development, Tourism and Planning. This report was written on September 6, 2019. Lake Ontario/Oswego River report: According to Oz Angling Tackle: When the wind has not been an issue, salmon fishing on the lake has been on fire this summer. There is certainly no shortage of fish, and the average size fish is impressive this year. The top ten kings weighed in for the “Fall LOC Derby” range between 29-33 pounds. Anglers are targeting kings as shallow as 100 FOW and as deep as 600 FOW. Meat rigs and cut bait have been the hot item for kings this summer but flasher/flies, spoons, and j-plugs are taking fish right now as well.
